Beschrijving keerzijde Four priestly implements of Roman state religion arranged in the field: at center-left, a simpulum (ladle used in libations) facing right, and at upper right, a lituus (augur's curved staff); below the simpulum, a tripod facing right is indicated, and at lower right, a patera (libation bowl). These four symbols collectively reference Nero's co-optation into the major Roman priestly colleges as a mark of his elevated status. A continuous Latin legend encircles the entire design, recording the senatorial decree authorizing his supernumerary membership in all colleges. The reverse composition is uncluttered, with the sacred implements distributed across an otherwise plain field.

Aanvullende informatie

Struck under Claudius but attributing college memberships acquired by Nero as heir apparent, this issue dates to the period after Nero's adoption in 50 AD — the legend recording his co-optation into all priestly colleges beyond the statutory number, an extraordinary honor engineered by Agrippina the Younger to cement her son's position as successor. The phrase supra numerum is the key: it signals appointment in excess of normal college limits, a privilege reserved for members of the imperial family.

Claudius died in 54 AD, almost certainly poisoned.
